Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which molecules are made during the Krebs Cycle to power the electron transport chain?
A
ATP and CO2
B
ATP and NADH
C
NADH and FADH2
D
ADP, NAD+ and FAD+
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The Krebs Cycle generates ATP and many energized electrons (in the form of FADH2 and NADH) for the electron transport chain.

Detailed explanation-2: -2.5 ATP/NADH and 1.5 ATP/FADH2 are produced in the electron transport chain. Some resources will say 3 ATP/NADH and 2 ATP/FADH2, but these values are generally less accepted now.

Detailed explanation-3: -Products and Functions of the Krebs Cycle For one cycle, two molecules of carbon, three molecules of NADH, one molecule of FADH2 and one molecule of ATP or GTP are produced.
